LOOKING BACK…
OBEDIENCE VERSUS SACRIFICE
1 SAMUEL 15:14-15
SAUL CHOSE TO DISOBEY BY SACRIFICING THE BEST SHEEP AND OXEN
TO THE LORD IN CONTRADICTION TO WHAT THE LORD ASKED HIM TO DO.
AN UNREPENTANT HEART DIVERTS BLAME TO OTHERS WHEN CAUGHT
IN DISOBEDIENCE, THUS FAILING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR HIS
ACTIONS
SAUL EVEN JUSTIFIES HIS DISOBEDIENCE
WHEN WE DISOBEY, WE ARE FOOLISH TO THINK THAT WE KNOW MORE
THAN GOD.
REBELLION AND
WITCHCRAFT
REBELLION AND WITCHCRAFT
1 SAMUEL 15:22-23 (NLT)
• 22 BUT SAMUEL REPLIED, “WHAT IS MORE PLEASING TO THE LORD: YOUR
BURNT OFFERINGS AND SACRIFICES OR YOUR OBEDIENCE TO HIS VOICE?
LISTEN! OBEDIENCE IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE, AND SUBMISSION IS BETTER
THAN OFFERING THE FAT OF RAMS.
23 REBELLION
IS AS SINFUL AS WITCHCRAFT, AND STUBBORNNESS AS BAD AS
WORSHIPING IDOLS. SO BECAUSE YOU HAVE REJECTED THE COMMAND OF
THE LORD, HE HAS REJECTED YOU AS KING.”
REBELLION AND WITCHCRAFT
1 SAMUEL 15:22-23 (NIV)
• 22 BUT SAMUEL REPLIED: “DOES THE LORD DELIGHT IN BURNT
OFFERINGS AND SACRIFICES AS MUCH AS IN OBEYING THE LORD? TO
OBEY IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE, AND TO HEED IS BETTER THAN THE FAT
OF RAMS.
• 23 FOR REBELLION IS LIKE THE SIN OF DIVINATION, AND ARROGANCE
LIKE THE EVIL OF IDOLATRY. BECAUSE YOU HAVE REJECTED THE WORD
OF THE LORD, HE HAS REJECTED YOU AS KING.”
REBELLION AND WITCHCRAFT
1 SAMUEL 15:22-23 (MAGANDANG BALITA)
• 22SINABI NI SAMUEL, “AKALA MO BA'Y HIGIT NA MAGUGUSTUHAN NI
YAHWEH ANG HANDOG AT HAIN KAYSA ANG PAGSUNOD SA KANYA?
MAS MABUTI ANG PAGSUNOD KAY YAHWEH KAYSA PAGHAHANDOG,
AT ANG PAKIKINIG AY HIGIT SA HAING TABA NG TUPA. 23ANG
PAGSUWAY SA KANYA AY KASINSAMA NG PANGKUKULAM, AT ANG
KATIGASAN NG ULO'Y TULAD NG PAGSAMBA SA DIYUS-DIYOSAN.
SAPAGKAT ITINAKWIL MO ANG SALITA NI YAHWEH, ITINAKWIL KA RIN
NIYA BILANG HARI.
REBELLION IS AS SINFUL AS WITCHCRAFT
